Summary

An authority on Asia and globalization identifies the challenges China's growing power poses and how it must be confronted.

When China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, most experts expected the WTO rules and procedures would liberalize China and make it "a responsible stakeholder in the liberal world order". But the experts made the wrong bet. China today is liberalizing neither economically nor politically but, if anything, becoming more authoritarian and mercantilist.

In this book, notably free of partisan posturing and inflammatory rhetoric, renowned globalization and Asia expert Clyde Prestowitz describes the key challenges posed by China and the strategies America and the Free World must adopt to meet them. He argues that these must be more sophisticated and more comprehensive than a narrowly targeted trade war. Rather, he urges strategies that the US and its allies can use unilaterally without contravening international or domestic law.

A very informative book.

A brilliant narrator enhances the richness of information and the thought-provoking data the book provides the listener with. Highly recommended.

A must read for all freedom loving citizens

If we care about our children and their future we must understand how to protect them from our oligarchs who are working with China against us and try to protect them before the cost is too great.
